A Glimpse Into the Post-Marchionne FCA Product Plan Coming June 1

We love FCA's five-year plans. The automaker does not adhere strictly to them, but they provide a detailed snapshot of what the company sees as possible and which brands and vehicles are part of the vision.

CEO Sergio Marchionne will present his third product and business plan on June 1. The first one was back in November of 2009 after he assumed leadership of the new entity known as FCA, a merging of Chrysler and Fiat that was a prerequisite of government loans for Chrysler to emerge from bankruptcy.

The first plan outlined financial targets and a product rollout for each brand for the period from 2010 to 2014. It was followed up by another five-year plan through 2018.

In Balocco, Italy, on June 1, the FCA maestro will oversee his final planning document but Marchionne will not be the one to see it through—he is retiring next year. His successor, who will not be named at the June 1 investor gathering, is part of the current leadership team and has helped craft the new plan he will be expected to execute.

Here are some things we want to know.
